Wisteria Tea & Mushroom Soba

Whilst the seed pods and leaves of the wisteria plant are toxic, the flowers impart a beautiful chestnut flavour when steeped in hot water. Paired with earthy mushroom, sesame & soy, there is no bowl more comforting. Use this as a base for any plant-based protein you like.
